뇌출혈의 원인은 뇌동맥이 고혈압의 높은 압력을 견디지 못하여 파열하기 때문에 일어나고, 뇌혈전의 원인은 동맥경화증이 중요한 원인이다. 따라서 뇌졸중의 중요 원인은 고혈압과 동맥경화라는 것을 알 수 있으며, 최선의 치료방법은 40대 이후에 정기적인 혈압측정 및 건강검사를 받아서 발견조기에 예방하는 것이 최선이다.

당뇨병환자의 주된 사망 원인은 심장병이다. 당뇨병환자는 동맥경화증이 잘 생기고 이와 관련해 협심증, 심근경색증, 말초혈관질환, 뇌졸중이 잘 생기는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그중에서 관상동맥이 동맥경화증에 의해 막혀 생기는 대표적인 심혈관질환이 바로 협심증과 심근경색이다.

당뇨병 환자에서 동맥 경화증은 가장 흔하고 중요한 합병증 중 하나이며 동맥경화증에 의한 관상동맥질환, 뇌혈관 질환 등 대혈관 질환은 당뇨병이 없는 사람보다 그 빈도가 2-4배 높으며 사망률 또한 높고 뇌졸중 중에서도 특히 뇌경색의 빈도가 높다.

In this paper, we propose to evaluate the potential anti-inflammatory properties of root bark extract of Cudrania (C.) tricuspidata on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation in macrophages of apolipoprotein E (ApoE) knockout (ApoE^-/-) mice, murine model of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is a chronic vascular inflammatory disease. C. tricuspidata is a small tree of the Moraceae family and its extract has anti-inflammatory activities. However, its role in the progress of atherosclerosis is not yet clear. To determine anti-inflammatory effects of C. tricuspidata in atherogenesis, we applied LPS in peritoneal macrophages of ApoE^-/- mice and measured cell viability by CCK-8 and expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines by qRT-PCR following treatment with root bark extract of C. tricuspidata. Research data was expressed as differences between the cells treated with LPS and root bark extract and the cells treated with LPS alone (control) by a two-tailed non-parametric Mann-Whitney U-test using GraphPad Instat program. No cytotoxic effect was observed when the cells were treated with the extract at concentrations ≤ 100 ㎍/mL. The expression of inflammatory cytokines, including MCP-1, IL-1β, IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-6 were inhibited by the extract. These results indicated that the extract has an anti-inflammatory effect and therefore a possible role in the treatment of atherosclerosis.

Atherosclerotic giant aneurysm of the common femoral artery is rare. Because the patients who lose timing of the operation face amputation or death, the surgical treatment must be performed at the proper time. A 72-old man was admitted to the hospital because of a 20-days history of pulsatile growing mass on his left groin. After the diagnosis of giant aneurysm of the common femoral artery by computerized tomography and digital subtraction angiography, an emergent operation was performed. Both deep and superficial femoral arteries were successfully reconstructed with Gore-tex grafts after aneurysmectomy. The pathology of the aneurysm was proved to be atherosclerosis.

Regular exercise is effective in preventing coronary disease such as angina pectoris and infarction, inside it can lower the blood pressure and aids in weight control and release of stress. Risk factors of arteriosclerosis is hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, obesity, physical inactivity and excessive smoking. Arteriosclerosis begins at young age worsens with age, particulary in male. For people with risk factors of arteriosclerosis, it is important to prevent arteriosclerosis-related disease with dietary, living pattern and exercise prescription. Dietary fibers promote exercise of the digestive tract and shortens the time food remains inside the digestive tract. It can prevent obesity, hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis and colin cancer by blocking the absorption of cholesterol. Various vegetables and sea foods are lichen unsaturated fats and prevent the absorption of cholesterol inside the digestive tract. Essential fatty acids and unsaturated fats which are contained in vegetable oils, promotes metabolism while preventing absorption. In fruits, pectin water-soluble fiber, is present and lowers the level of cholesterol. By consuming foods that low in cholesterol and saturated fats, and rich in unsaturated fats, aliomentotherapy alone can reduce the plasma cholesterol by 10~l5$\%$. For ideal exercise, it should be aerobic with intensity of 60~80$\%$ HRmax, duration of 15~60min/day. The frequancy of 3~6/week is desirable the better exercise prescription is endurance aerobic exercise. To get more effect exercise, exercise consistency is very important.

Cerebrovascular disease is one of the three major causes of death in Korea. Since these diseases are associated with atherosclerosis, the diagnosis of atherosclerotic factors should be presented. In this study, we evaluated the relationship between brachial-ankle arterial pulse wave velocity, cerebral artery vascular stenosis, blood pressure, obesity, and abdominal obesity by age group. The significance of cerebral artery stenosis and age group. The risk factors of atherosclerosis, such as blood pressure, obesity, and abdominal obesity, were significant in all age groups. When the pulse wave velocity of the brachial-ankle artery was increased, the cerebral artery stenosis was distributed in 57.3% of the total test subjects. If the arterial stiffness is suspected during the measurement of the pulse wave velocity of the brachial ankle artery, We recommend suspected vascular stenosis and perform a cerebral artery angiography. It is suggested that the data will be used as a baseline data for similar studies after evaluating the significance of blood pressure, obesity, and abdominal obesity as risk factors of atherosclerosis.
